Welcome back to the Boomer
Career Guide Podcast, Episode #2. Where we’re going to make two
points crystal clear.

not an ANCHOR!

And

#2: Your DREAM JOB BOSS would
hire you if they could find you!

This is Episode number two of
the BOOMER CAREER GUIDE PODCAST and you’re in the right
place:

If You are a Boomer who still
brings it or would like to.

If
You’re a Boomer who’s not ready for the rocker!

I hope your getting ready to
start walking through the SEVEN SIMPLE STEP PROCESS, over the next
few sessions that will become the action steps that will make you
discoverable and to give you choices between a number of possible
Dream Job opportunities.

I
think you may agree with me that it’s about time that you became
the decision maker in this CAREER BOOSTING PROCESS.

So, as we continue in the
Podcast, the Blog and in our twin communities on FaceBook and
LinkedIn, we’ll work toFIND SOLUTIONSandSHARE
SUCCESSES, relative to all
things Boomer.

GUIDE GROUPs.

SO, BACK TO THE CONVERSATION
ABOUT YOU:

If you find yourself in the
popular category ofBOOMER
WORKING, first of all,
don’t despair and don’t feel like the Lone Ranger, Kemosabe. You’re
in excellent company.

The vast majority of all
Boomers have no plans for retirement. In fact, the last time I
checked there were between 65 and 70 MILLION BOOMERS in the work
force.

Believe it or not, many Boomers
are actually working because they enjoy the process and the
paycheck.

While many others are working
out of necessity and will continue working
indefinitely.

Experts tell us that most
Boomers, as many individuals in any age group, are working in a
long term assignment that would not particularly be considered an
inspiring and financially rewarding DREAM
JOB.

If we take a look atYOUR CURRENT CONDITION:

YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE A DREAM JOB...IF IT DOES
NOTpay what you’re worth,
on a level commensurate with your abilities.

YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE A DREAM JOB...IF IT DOES
NOTrealize nor require
you to use your full range of knowledge, skills, talents, passions
and experience.

And YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE A DREAM JOB...IF IT DOES
NOTchallenge you to
actively share the value of your distinctlyBOOMER
WORK ETHIC.

THE GOOD NEWS IS, BOOMER:

WHILE THE REASON FOR THIS
CONDITION, AS STATED, IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND, IT IS ALSO JUST AS
EASY TO RESOLVE.

...AND THE VERY EXCELLENT NEWS:

MOST OF YOUR (using the
term loosely) COMPETITION IN THE JOB MARKET WON’T HAVE A CLUE
THAT:

THERE IS BOTH A PROBLEM AND A
SIMPLE IMMEDIATELY ACHIEVABLE SOLUTION.

So, since this is a big deal that affects milions of
individuals and most importantly, YOU, let’s try to figure out just
exactly…

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE, IN THE FIRST PLACE, FOR THIS FAILURE
TO BE FULFILLED?

CAN WE BLAME THE EVIL EMPLOYER? (Not
really):

Most employers are honorable,
decent humans. The reason that many jobs are filled with
over-qualified and under utilized individuals is not the result of
some evil scheme.

Think about it. Having a job
opening or an empty position from the employer’s perspective, is
not something to celebrate. It’s a problem that needs to be
resolved immediately.

For that reason, employers do
their best to find the most qualified person to fill a hole in
their operation, as quickly as possible.

Bottom line, if you meet their
needs, you get the job. Period. They don’t ask “What else would you
like to do. Boomer?” They simply fill the need and get back to the
business of doing business.

So, if it’s not the Employer’s fault, can we blame THE
UNDERACHIEVING EMPLOYEE? (Not likely):

The reality is that most people
look for a job when the don’t have one or when they can’t stand the
one they’re in. In either case, the desire to findANY JOB, IMMEDIATELY,is often a motivating factor in theJOB SEARCH PROCESS.

Since being stuck in a DEAD END DAY JOB is obviously
undesirable and easily identifiable, “WHY DON’T DREAMERS JUST LEAVE
AND FIND A BETTER JOB?”

Keeping it real : While moving
on would certainly be good advice for many millions of individuals,
for the average employee, the need to avoidstress,
frustration and disappointmentis stronger than the desire for a better
job.

It can seem scarey out there.The
anticipated pain and uncertainty in seeking a change is
understandable, if you don’t have a logical and well defined action
plan.

While most people will continue
to work in a job they hate, because they see thechallenge to changeas more stressful than staying stuck in a dead
end job.....I’m here to tell you: IT’S NOT!

LET’S DIG A LITTLE DEEPER AND ANSWER A QUESTION THAT MAY
START SOME WHEELS SPINNING:

.

First of all:

HOW DID YOU LAND SUCH A PERSONALLY UNAPPEALING JOB
ASSIGNMENT IN THE FIRST PLACE?

Do you remember what it was like
looking for your first job?

It may have been similar to the
experience many of us had when we knocked on any door that looked
like a business and asked if they were hiring.

If the answer were yes, on a
good day, we filled out an application, sailed through a short
interview and accepted the job,whatever that
was, even without clearly
understanding the job description or the rate of pay. After all, at
that time, any job was better than no job.

That is a common practice when
we are novice job seekers with no experience(“We’ll
take whatever they offer and like it!).Unfortunately and somewhat surprisingly, the
search process remains very similar for the majority of seasoned
workers in future job searches.

Many are desperate,
disorganized, unconfident and ill prepared for the
search.

They are UNAWARE that in order
to find your dream job, you absolutely need to:

PLAN
YOUR SEARCH

THOUGHTFULLY PREPARE YOUR
PRESENTATION

YOU
NEED TO CORRECTLY USE ALL OF THE TOOLS AVAILABLE.

AND
YOU NEED TO GET LASER FOCUSED ON WHAT YOU WANT TO DO AND WHERE YOU
WANT TO DO IT.

PERIOD.

SO, AS I’VE SAID, Our goal in
this forum is to serve as a community centeredQUESTIONS AND ACTIONSresource, where you can get the guidance you
need, the answers to your questions and concerns

AND WHILE WE’RE AT IT, YOU CAN
connect with individuals with similar challenges, experiences and
successes, TO LEARN SOMETHING AND SHARE SOMETHING with like minded
individuals ON THE SAME JOURNEY.

This is the very beginning of
what can become an exciting global conversation all about the fine
tuning, fast tracking and re-energizing the upcoming SECOND HALF of
your life’s adventure.

As this platform grows, we can
all look forward toLEARNING AND SHARINGon a number of levels revolving
around our analysis of commonCHALLENGES, INTERESTS
& LIFESTYLE OPPORTUNITIES.

The direction of our dialogue
will depend on your interests and participation. We will look
forward to reading your comments on this podcast, in the blog and
in our group conversations.

I’ll share my own personal
experience of multiple career boosts, THAT I HAVE SHARED WITH
OTHERS AND USED IN MY MOST RECENT TRANSITION at the age of 64 ½,
where I doubled my income and became a valuable member of an
amazing organization that is exciting and is one appreciates my
experience and my potential. I’LL SHOW YOU WHAT I DID TO LAND
THE COOLEST JOB OF MY CAREER.

IN THE MEAN TIME,If you’d
like to talk ABOUT ANYTHING RELATING TO YOUR OWN STATUS AND SEARCH
DREAMS, I hope you’ll message me personally or send me an email at
David@BoomerCareerGuide.com.
